Astronauts Pause Work to Shelter While Repairing ISS Leak

A leak was detected aboard the International Space Station. Crew members began a repair operation to stop the loss. During the work they briefly took shelter inside a module. The sheltering step was a safety precaution while the leak persisted. After the brief pause the astronauts resumed the repair. The effort aimed to restore the station’s pressure integrity. The incident underscores the challenges of maintaining the orbiting lab. Ongoing monitoring will confirm that the leak has been fully sealed.
